STEP SEVEN // Pros + Cons

This is the part where you might want to start paring back or adding to your quote and begin enlisting the help of family and friends. We all have that person who is just itching to help (bless them). Everyone’s day is different, so the help you receive from family and friends varies from person to person. Evaluate who does what and where in terms of your needs and the volunteers strengths.

WHY

It can be tough saying no to help or having to tastefully re-engineer a quote, but save yourself now from the future disappointment of broken relationships and less then satisfactory results by being firm with yourself and others.

HOW

Weigh up the pros and cons, what feels best to you? Make lists and phone calls. By all means seek wise counsel but limit your advice-givers to two. Never make decisions when you’re emotional and remind yourself of your values and goals.
